Finally Red Faction A is backward compatibile!! They need to make Guerrilla Backward compatibile now!!!
I own Bayonetta on disk. I REALLY wanted to like it, but I found it boring. Should have sold it. i guess that disk is now worth nothing.
I sold the PS3 version for $11 on eBay, so, not bad.
I meant since it's now a games with gold game, most people who want it for 360 or One will now have it.
Don't sell it now, wait until it's off Gold, and those who didn't add it to their library or without Gold, still won't have it. I sold 3 games that were previously on Gold recently, all sold for around the $10-$15 mark.
Thanks for the tip. This is definitely one I don't care much if I lose so digital download is fine. Disk is of no use.
$11 minus fees for the time and effort involved is pretty bad.
Yeah, it's not great, but if you're selling 1 game, not worth it. I had 15 to sell, so $200 after fees is better than collecting dust.
Noob question: what does it mean "avai from Aug 1-15"? So after 15th Aug can I still play it?
Can still play it but can't 'claim' it. So claim it during that time, play it while you have Xbox Live Gold
Yup as Spack said, you must add the title into your library within its available window, after that:
If it's a 360 title, the title is playable even if your Xbox live gold finishes.
If it's a One title, you can only play it as long as you have a gold subscription.
Honestly, this answer should be pinned somewhere. The amount of people that ask about this is astronomical.
I know right, it's almost a default comment to post in the new games with gold deal posting.
Lost my disc for trials fusion during a move. This is awesome (Y)
This is BS. I literally just bought slime rancher for my son yesterday.
I'm guessing MS wouldn't refund it would they
Depending on your refund history they probably will. I've seen people get the difference back when a game goes on sale shortly after they've bought it, I've had a full game refund in the past. MS support are really good with these kind of things from my experience. Worth jumping on live chat and asking.
if its within 24 hrs of purchase
or
you havnt downloaded it yet then they possibly mght.if u have played it or had it a while very little chance
Good month. I wonder if they're going to make splintery cell backwards compatible soon. Apparently they released news of it being bc and then quickly removed it.
Slime Rancher is up now as well.
so here's a question for fellas in the know
my xb gold recently expired but i have a few trials so im using those, im currently using a 14 day gold trial, that's fine and it counts as gold, i can play all my gold games and download slime rancher no worries, but the 360 games (bayonetta) will only let me buy it for $30, according to the x360 storefront, i dont have gold, whereas it's fine for xb1
anyone else had this prob/know a workaround?
A 14 day trial doesn't make you a Gold member. You need at least a 1 month membership to be 'Gold'.
yeah ive read that online but it's clearly not quite correct since i already downloaded slime rancher and cobalt for free just now, so it is enough for xbox one games but not for 360 for some reason
a 14 day trial doesn't technically count as proper Gold.
For "proper" Gold, you need a bank card. That's the big difference.
A one month trial for example, which requires a bank card, is "proper" Gold, which in turn will net you the 360 games to keep forever.
Kind of confusing and there's a million explanations out there, it's just a little dumb really. Anyway, to put it basically, to get the 360 games you either need a trial that requires a bank card, or you need to be an actual member.
Hope I made that clear enough.
Awesome month!
